27 month old taking tantrums?

My daughter is 27 months old and is starting to take tatrums so bad that she vomits and slams her butt down on the ground, she will stand up and slam back down again over and over. What do I do to control this

Answers:
There is a book/DVD series called "The Happiest Toddler on the Block : The New Way to Stop the Daily Battle of Wills and Raise a Secure and Well-Behaved One- to Four-Year-Old". It is published by Dr. Harvey Harp. I borrowed the DVD from the library and are surprised by the method they use to deal with the Toddler Tantrum. It is very easy and humane. (Does not involve let him cry it out or things like that.) The technique involves around first talking in same level of energy like your tod to get the attetion, then start to re-direct the attention...

I used the technique on my 2 year old and it really did work. I definitely recommend you to dig into that a little bit more.

You need to take her to the doctor. Tantrums are only tantrums until the child physically is hurt or hurting themselves. If she is vomiting and slamming her butt on the ground, you definately need to take her to a doctor. Not to scare you, but she's not throwing tantrums--that's worse than a tantrum.

Yes, Take her to a doctor! What people don't realize is that when the child is physically hurting themselves (slamming down over and over, throwing up, whatever it may be) it's not good. You need to have her looked over and see what the doctor says. Don't ignore it--that's the worst thing you could do. I promise this is the right thing to do by taking her to a doctor. Tantrums are more than just tantrums when it causes kids to hurt themselves. A normal tantrum would involve screaming, crying, stomping, etc.---not vomiting and slamming yourself on the floor many times over. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. God bless.

spank her if she does it. Nothing gets through faster than a sore butt.
